Using social media can make us feel closer but also tear us apart. It’s similar to the idea of divide and conquer and without the majority knowing what’s happening behind the scenes. I have spent the last few years really going through a lot of internal thought and reflection. Attempting to understand why I felt the way I did about life and realizing that if I felt this way, many others are probably feeling the same way too.
I came to some of the following conclusions of what makes us who we are today. It always seems to stem from the information fed to us through the indoctrination from our schools. With the definition of indoctrination being, ‘the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically.’
Literally brainwashed from the early stages of childhood and for the majority of our lives to not question or wonder if what is told to us is truth. Which opens up the opportunity for them to lie to us about everything. Without most of us seeing the underlying meaning behind why they would be lying in the first place.
It is clear that there are no intentions for equality from those with power or there would be no such thing as the tremendous wealth gap we see today. This thought alone should make us question why we continue to follow the path they’ve led for us. Taking their vaccines, eating their food, watching their movies and tv shows, buying their products, listening to their music, slaving for their corporations, and much more.
Which is why this #introduceyourself post is not about me, but about us and how we can come together to change the world. We spend so much time focusing on what makes each of us ‘different’ or ‘unique’ and trying to portray this image to others. When really we are all one in the same, and until we all start understanding how impactful we can become when all of our thoughts and emotions align as one, we will never truly know the power from within.
Our mind is a powerful place but we must be actively using it to change our current paradigm. Our minds are predisposed to how they want us to behave and react, which is not out of intellect but rather the programming of their bad habits. Let’s take control and start by spreading love and positivity to those around us at all times. Being open minded and sharing our thoughts without criticism from one another. As well as actively reminding ourselves that nothing is about just one person but all of us as one. Together we can take over the world and break free from the chains that hold us down! Who’s with me?
Hey, nice post. Not sure which interface you are using, but I want to recommend you using Steempeak, it's the best. If you are not using it already ;)

I'll agree with this ;)
Thank you for the advice and support! Downloading it now as I’ve just been using the browser on my phone 😂
welcome to Steem
Thank you so much!! Hope you’ve had a great day!
again welcome... i appreciated your first post and that you came to steem for a good reason instead of looking for quick money. Also saw your ability to interact on the network was running a bit low since you had been doing a bunch today. So I delegated 10 more SP which gives you more ability to comment and post. (Don't need to know much about it and sometime next year the interfaces will likely pay for it and take care of it for users but for now just know it regenerates each day)
Thank you so much Jarvie! I was having a hard time getting enough to comment back with appreciation of all the support I’ve received from you all. Really happy to be here and looking forward to seeing what everyone has to share. Have a great night!!

I think about this more and more every day. The first time I really realized this was when I learned the truth behind the animal agriculture industry and how animal exploitation is so normalized in schools and the media, and how hidden the industry tries to keep the truth. Pretty much from birth were lied to and persuaded by industries to believe we "need" things we dont need at all (milk for strong bones, make-up for beauty, gadgets for entertainment, disposable everything for convenience...). I get so frustrated just thinking about it! Even more frustrating is when you try to share these thoughts on platforms like IG and suddenly your reach takes a dive.
Sorry, I didnt mean to rant there but your post just struck something in me! XD Anyway, welcome and I look forward to seeing and reading more from you :D

Exactly!! I have been so consumed by these thoughts for far too long now and it’s nice to have a place like Steem to freely express them. As well as so many people to relate to! So many examples.. all coming from someone (mainly large corporations) creating profit from almost nothing. Then most don’t contribute to resolving the waste that’s being generated because of them. It’s so sad but I believe that we can come together and change this for the future!
In regards to IG and the reach it is completely true! They don’t want others to open their minds to what’s happening. We’re all supposed to remain as cattle 😵
What a nice photography. Mainly the last one. The leaf and blue effect, it looks awesome.
I really appreciate the support! Editing images seems to always be the best part. I love putting a little spin to the colors sometimes 😀
Most excellent introduce yourself post! Welcome to Steemit!! Not at all what I was expecting and a most wonderful write.
Steempeak is what I like to use and yes, you can check all your stats in SteemWorld. Good luck and help is here if you need it. Have a great day!

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide.
Hey man! Welcome to Steem! Excited to read/see more of your work! Cheers :))
I can’t wait to share more with you!! Looking forward to what everyone has to share on here as well. Thank you for all the support ✌️
I feel that we all want to be free but we dont see the contradiction that usually appears by being free. Does all the people want to give up from that feeling of beeing under psychological arrest? Does the people even imagine how their life will be if their take care of their lifes by their own hands?
I also agree with this as many don’t have the proper education to know how to self sustain including myself. And I feel as though one of the most important things would be to properly educate our children this from a young age. We are taught growing up things such as ‘what do you want to be when you grow up?’ As opposed to ‘who are you now’ or ‘what does it mean to be a human and how does what we eat or consume affect our body.’
Welcome and thank you for the different intro, but we also like to know more about you but that aside, welcome to the Steemit platform, Yes its happening you are a steemian now. I am warm welcoming you as a new user. And you receive this message because you used the #introduceyourself tag!
